Chapter 14: Lizardians

Lucas looked at the party for a moment before shaking his head.

In any case, he had managed to level up fast already while on solo before. Might as well continue it.

Besides, with how low his level is, no party might even accept him. It was better to raise his level first before he starts joining other parties.

Deciding as such, Lucas left the village to look for a high-level hunting area without many players around.

It took a while for him to reach the area of Level 50 Lizardians. Lizardians are basically...well, large lizards. There are also some different variants where one can breathe fire, others have earthen shells, and such.

Their materials are fairly popular for crafting element-based weapons or armors.

Lucas took a look around until he found an empty space without players and started his hunt.

Dragon's Wrath!

Lucas felt his body grow stronger and stronger.

He took a deep breath and remained calm.

"Good, I can remain calmer longer this time..."

Lucas clenched his fist and grinned as he faced against the Lizardians in the area.

The next moment, he charged forward and punched!

Lucas continued to hunt like this for a few hours.

After a while, players eventually appeared near him.

A party of 4 members composed of a Knight, Swordsman, Healer, and Thief appeared. There were all about Level 45 or so, just a bit more to advance their class.

The Knight was a handsome blonde man while the rest of his companions were beautiful women...the bastard had a harem!

"Hm? Is there a player here?"

The Knight frowned and saw a man wearing beginner clothes surrounded by a black-ish aura while punching Lizardians with ease.

"A Fighter? Was there a Fighter skill with that kind of visual effect?"

"I don't think so..."

The Healer girl tilted her head cutely as she pondered.

The Swordsman girl turned to the Knight.

"Jay, what should we do? This was supposed to be our hunting area."

"He's just one guy, I saw we kill him."

The Thief girl narrowed her eyes as she lifted her dagger.

Jay shook his head.

"Calm down Dia, there's no need to create an enemy because of some minor reason. We can just ask him if he wants to join us grind. He looks strong too."

"Muu...if you say so."

Dia pouted but still listened to Jay.

The Swordsman girl shrugged and turned to the Healer.

"What do you think his class is Jana?"

"Not sure...might be a Hidden Fighter class. Or maybe just a unique skill. Why? Are you interested in fighting him, Bea?"

"Well, he looks strong after all."

Bea grinned.

"Ah, but Jay is definitely stronger!"

"..."

Jana sighed and shook her head.

Why is it that I have so many love rivals...

At this time, Lucas had just finished killing a fire-type Lizardian and noticed them approaching.

Lucas patted his knuckles and turned to them. He also deactivated Dragon's Wrath as he could feel his control slipping out for a bit now.

"Hi, something wrong?"

"Hello brother, I'm Kirito!"

Lucas kept a calm expression but he was laughing in his mind.

Kirito! It's this bastard who took this name!

He's not even black-haired but blonde!

And he's a Knight, not a Swordsman!

And he looks weak as shit!

But...

Lucas glanced at the pretty ladies following him.

...WHY DOES HE HAVE A FUCKING HAREM!?

Lucas' face twitched but he tried to remain calm as he shook his hand.

"I'm Lucas..."

"Lucas! You look strong! Do you want to join our party?"

"Uhh..."

Lucas was surprised and thought for a moment.

Frankly, he didn't really need to join a party at this point.

Moreover, something about this guy really annoys him...
